Andy Dick Avoids Sex Charge

LOS ANGELES — Prosecutors say they won't charge Andy Dick with sexual battery stemming from his arrest last month.

The "NewsRadio" actor with a reputation for crude public behavior is still scheduled to face a judge later this week on misdemeanor drug possession and battery charges. But he escaped felony charges after prosecutors reviewed video of the incident, Riverside County District Attorney spokesman Ryan Hightower said.

A teenage girl accused the 42-year-old actor of pulling down her top at a restaurant in Murrieta, a city about 80 miles east of Los Angeles in mid-July. Dick was arrested by officers responding to reports of an intoxicated male.

Dick is scheduled to appear in court Wednesday.

Have Mercy, Huffpo. Get this creep off the homepage. Really, we're trying to eat here.

[aznurse]

Yeah! Its been up about a week.. NO ONE CARES. I only came here to try to get the photo off!

[ElPerro]

Oh, I thought Andy avoided getting charged money for sex. It's always nice to get a freebie every so often. I wonder if his escort service has a punch card system that gives him a fee date after every 10 paid ones.

they had to let him go. He's speaking tomorrow night at the Dem Convention.

Meanwhile it's Christmas in August for gay hustlers and procurers of little boys in Minneapolis.

perv!

[littlepuffycloud]

Why was he not charged after pulling down a teenager's top?!?!

[spiderbucket]

The wealthy can do whatever they want without any recourse.

"Wealthy?!" A city bus driver's got more than Mr. Dick.

[ignorantwillyharper]

When he was born, his folks should have tossed a coin to see which one would slam his a** up aganist a tree.

[SKonnery]

First on the list for him should be to get sober.

[JaneaneTheAcerbicGoblin]

He'll probably get a reality show deal out of this.

Andy Dick is such a creep. What he needs is a few nights (or years) in jail to balance out his perverted behaviour. The woman involved would be well within her rights to sue the crap out of this idiot.

[PatA]

What a ****!

[andvoodoo2]

I hope the teen sues dick for everything he's got.
